Table Talk - Development

Ive taken the libert of posting in the characters thread, as the character seems to be about finsihed. I'll change it there if and as needed.

I've been conservative and settled on Pre + Leadership for setting his Agents. I also switched his lowest Characteristic from Strength to Quickness, as it better fits his obesity. While the guidelines say he should gain 2 Warping Points per year, I settled on 1 WP per year given that he hasn't got a Longevity Ritual. He did get 3 Aging Points in the rolls I made. I also increased to 2/day his Leap of Homecoming invested effect, copied in the stats for his familiar (the Matron), and made up the basic stats for his sole agent (airy spirit).

I noticed that wielding a staff makes him have Encumbrance. Are we going to enforce this? I imagine him leaning on his staff, the staff helping rather than hindering him. It's strange that old wizened wizards won't go about brandishing staffs because they weigh too much for them to wield in their old age...

Another question - I noticed that Titus is wielding a Bow of Quality, Armor of Quality, and so on, providing bonuses to Attack and Soak. I wonder - what do Wizard Robes of Quality add to? Or a Wizard's Staff of Quality? Can they add to spell casting rolls? Aiming rolls? Intrigue rolls in tribunal?

Now there is just the small matter of, well, joining the game...

Edit: Going over the character, I discovered RAW implies you can't use laboratory texts for his talisman. Which is silly, since it means talismans are less effective - but I'll change the character accordingly (dropping two effects and an attunement from the talisman, and adding a magic item).
